I made a ghost much like the one pictured above years ago in my Laurel class, when I was about 16 years old. Mom put it out every Halloween and filled it with roasted pumpkin seeds. So yummy! Anyway, after a few years, I left home and went to college and subsequently missed a few Halloweens. After I married, mom made sure I had it for my home.
I didn't realize 'til both Katie and Stephen moved out here how much a part of their childhood holiday memories my little ghost had become. Both expressed a real sense of nostalgia when they saw me bring it out in October. Last year I figured out how to make them again and made one for Katie. This year I improved upon the design a little bit and made another for Stephen. (Katie, I promise some day I'll make you the improved version!) So cute, if I do say so myself.

Thanks again! I love him (or her). I love the thought and the time you took getting this done for me! It meant so much!
